Sisi at Sea sails North

July 17, 2026 · 1 h 2 min

Show notes

Dane Sidse Birk Johannsen, better known as Sisi at Sea, has sailed from Denmark to Lofoten in her C&C 37 this summer. In this podcast she shares her experience, her best anchorages, the rough weather in Sognefjorden, and the glory of sailing among the rocks and skerries on Helgelandskysten, and being part of the Træna Music Festival. Now she is planning to leave her boat in the Arctic and maybe do some winter sailing.

You can follow her on Sisi at Sea. The bilge filter we are talking about is the Wavestream2, which every sailor should have to make sure to clean the bilgewater before it gets pumped overboard.

We have just released our Arctic Sailing Program, and it starts in mid-October with sailing with Whales and Northern Lights above 70 degrees North. Come join us for an experience you will never forget.

Keen on sailing the Norwegian coast? You should be. Read Sail the Norwegian Coast: How and Why you should sail the most beautiful coast in the world – Kindle edition.

If you need information about sailing in the high latitudes check out the book I wrote with Bob Shepton: High Latitude Sailing – Self-sufficient sailing techniques for cold waters and winter seasons.
